Hello;

I have a 720p led monitor, I would like to test my current rig setup if it could handle 1080p fine in gaming. Is there a way to test 1080p usage on cpu and graphics card on a 720p monitor?

Thnx for your help in advance.

Regards.

The best way to test real-world settings for your rig would be to do something called "downsampling".

It's the process of rendering the ingame image at a higher resolution than what your monitor can put out, but still within the pixel margins of your screen.

Look at this guide on how to do this, some games can look absolutely fantastic by downsampling, if your computer can handle it, that is:

You could try a bench marking tool like Eugine Valley/Heaven and adjust the settings to windowed and 1080p, not sure if that would work, or just google your graphics card with bench marks at 1080p and go from there.
